Lives up to its namesake, Nintendo still manages to deliver uniquely fun and enough new creative ways to keep delivering the goods... I can do without the talking flowers next time though.

Can't believe were coming up on this games fifth anniversary already. Probably my fourth playthrough at this point. Genuinely unreal this game exists still to me, and I could write a whole damn dissertation about how much I love it. A genuinely sincere sequel boasting with confidence and top tier action gameplay the genre has ever seen and yet to top since.

Dead Space getting the RE1 remake treatment from a studio who had no business touching a classic worked out better then I could have imagined. A fresh new coat of paint and QOL improvements makes this new version even more viscerally brutal and terrifying then the original. Tremendous work and a new gold standard for remakes. so of course EA makes this studio work on a Iron Man game next instead.

They don't make em like they used to anymore

A stylishly visceral, hop, skip, wall run, jump and John Woo diving bullet time FPS. So short and sweet with extra content sprinkled in on the side makes Severed Steel an easy recommendation for "all you need is gameplay" enjoyers.

About as depressingly half baked as everyone said it was and featuring what feels like less content then the previous games with an tact on Gear system that CTR Nitro Refueled added in as an update and ruined the point of character selection stats. Gameplay feels genuinely good but in the end... I'm not mad, I am just disappointed.

"When the weak court death, they find it"

A game that oozes the Moniker of a Cult classic. While dated, janky, tedious and not openly welcome at all to new players but when you get past those middling opening hours, Hideaki Itsuno's mighty ambitious action RPG makes for a grand adventure worth the journey to the end.

Happy new year!!

2017

A near perfect immersive sim dream, other then a lackluster conclusion. Prey is one of the most captivating experiences the medium has to offer. Absolutely superb.

The most fun and thrills I've had playing a multiplayer game in ages. I think that's worth praising given the bleak landscape of online gaming these days. Early access is this good now I hope to see it continue to grow.

A fantastic Soulslike, and a stunningly exceptional debut from a new studio. But I'm more impressed that a piece of media ever made me invested or gave two shits about the most annoying character in fiction that is Pinocchio. Strange times were living in.

"When the dreamer awakens, what happens to the inhabitants of the dream, and the world that was traveled?"

KIRA's labor of love to the games of Fromsoft's Kings Field & Shadow Tower is more then just an homage. It is a beautifully haunting dream I didn't want to wake up from. One of the years very best and underappreciated works of art.

Probably the most satisfying game shotgun I've used in awhile. Come for the F.E.A.R. inspired atmosphere , bullet time gameplay. Stay for the balls to wall, MW2 spec ops action schlock insanity that will have your ears ringing.

Its Doom Eternal meets Vanquish, and you have chainsaws for legs of course I was gonna enjoy this.
